I like it for what it is. It's a LSD trip.
It's offensive to be offensive like you have everything that's not okay to film it's in there it's pretty freaking crazy. Like they must have just survey the most sadistic people they know for ideas and said yes to all of em.
I mean i loved it for what it is, it's just that like if you think there's a deeper meaning to any of this you are mistaken. It's just we are gonna put the most offensive stuff we can think of and just build around it a story. I respect them for that takes balls. It's sometimes so offensive you have to justs stop drop your jaw and go like "wow that's not ok lol". But i'm not offended cause i get it like i know the intention behind this is not rooted in hate or racism or whatever.
I can't rate this a 10/10 it's not Shawshank Redemption here. It's Toxie 4 lol
But if you like feel to watch an insane crazy trip of a movie that dosen't give a single F. It's a pretty crazy experience. Only if you are willing to go through the rabbit hole tho.

There are some Troma films that are just plain bad- and not in a good way. But I still watch them, and kinda like them just because they are Troma films. It is like drinking coffee without cream and sugar. It is bitter; I didn't always like it that way; but I aquired a taste for it. But "Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV" is actually an amazingly entertaining and creative movie that non-Troma fans
could enjoy.
As usual, this film is not for the squeamish with all of its creative gore. The gore isn't realistic by any means. It is quite obvious that you are seeing a melon with a mask and wig being smashed, etc. And anyone could take offense to
something in the film if they actually believed Kaufman was serious- but he isn't. I have the unrated directors edition, so I don't know what the difference is from the R version, but I wouldn't invite my fellow members from church over to watch it.
This film doesn't drag on. The story is even kind of clever- not just Toxie going around and saving the day. Lots of good gags, creative gore scenes, and the
usual nudity sprinkled throughout. The porn Godfather Ron Jeremy plays
Troma's mayor as well. Unfortunately it is rare to find any Troma DVDs new or old in Blockbuster or Hollywood Video stores. So your best bet is to either find a privately owned business that carries lots of independent titles or cough up a few extra bucks to buy it. The DVD is a 2 disc collector's edition and is the director's cut- unrated. There is lots of goodies on the DVD including a 95
minute documentary called "Apocalypse Soon: The Making of Citizen Toxie".

Holy Christmas!! what did we do to deserve this? Personally, I had given up on a watchable sequel to The Toxic Avenger, what a pleasant surprise, It makes me giddy just thinking about it. Citizen Toxie was exactly what should happen, post Terror Firmer. After the ultimate Troma experience, this was really the most logical, next step, considering Terror Firmer was about the making of a new Toxic Avenger sequel. Well, this is it...
Our long-awaited (real) sequel begins with the most hilarious, most outrageous, first 30 minutes in cinema history. Upon his triumphant return, Melvin "Toxie" Ferd wipes out the diaper mafia, accidentally gets a bunch of retarded ( very special) children shot, impregnates his wife, and unknowingly falls into an alternate dimension. Not a bad warm up. It really feels like the movie has barely started. With an alternate dimension, of course, comes an alternate Toxie. Meet the Noxious Offender, sadistic, killer, crack dealer, just a flat out heel...oh yeah, did I mention, he's now in Toxie's dimension, and he's about to kill virtually, everyone in Tromaville? With most everyone now dead, and a new breed of super hero's trying to make sense of things, Tromaville, along with Toxie's wife, Sarah, belongs to The Noxious Offender. Meanwhile, in Amortville, Toxie, and his retarded (very special), new friends, are awfully concerned, they can't find their houses, there's crime everywhere, come to think of it, this is a cesspool of filth, I don't think were in Tromaville anymore. What follows is the absolute, wildest, most out of hand, unpredictable day in the history of Tromaville...I mean Amortville.
Citizen Toxie is an unexpected, offensive, fast-paced, bat out of hell, but, of course, still has "that Kaufman silliness". We even got our favorites, Lemmy, Debbie, Fleishaker, even our pal, Ron Jeremy pays us a visit. A decent B-movie, not to mention, a masterpiece of a B-movie is quite refreshing, in our current decade. Too bad John Waters doesn't have Lloyd's attitude, and stop making quirky, pseudo-taboo, upbeat, comedies, like Pecker, and do what he's on this planet to do, but that's another story for another day. Citizen Toxie, unlike the first two sequels, stays true to the original, but with the same hard hitting, mean-spirited attitude of Tromeo & Juliet, and Terror Firmer. Our hero, Lloyd Kaufman gives his fans exactly what they crave, more than anyone else. If Toxie 2 and 3 depress you, and if Kaufman's most recent work excites you, and if you love the monster hero, then, Citizen Toxie will leave you in a teary-eyed stupor. Now, that's more like it!! 10/10

I had a difficult time reviewing this movie.
On the one hand, it was another opportunity to see Debbie Rochon.
On the other hand, I would have liked to see her in something else.
On one hand, I have to cheer for a movie that includes a role that I can actually play. Lardass rules!
On the other hand, I really got grossed out when the diaper gang guy pooped in his pants. Yech! On one hand, I can certainly cheer a superhero that takes breaks to have sex with his wife (Heidi Sjursen).
On the other hand, I am deeply offended at the multiple uses of the "R" word for the developmentally disabled. I consider that as offensive as the "N" word.
One one hand, I like Dolphin Man, The Vibrator, Masterbater, Sgt. Kabukiman and Mad Cowboy. That's some interesting superheros.
On the other hand, the are some really outrageous scenes in this movie that will certainly be offensive to many.
On the one hand, Tromas TV was hilarious.
On the other hand, this movie, while outrageous, was no worse than watching Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan, so I'll give it the same rating.

Did you know
- TriviaHugh Hefner was originally going to be in the Tromadu segment. A shot of him saying, "Only the Toxic Avenger knows for sure!" appears in the original teaser trailer. Unfortunately, a cease-and-desist order from Hefner's lawyers forced Troma to remove any and all visual depictions of him from both their advertising and the final film. By all accounts, Hefner himself was initially fine with being in the film, but his lawyers convinced him he was unfairly coerced into being in the movie. Because of this, during the "Special Thanks To" sequence of the final credits, there's a special "No thanks to Hugh Hefner, who asked to be cut out of this film" credit.
- GoofsWhen Toxie and Evil Kabukiman crash their car and it flips, the car comes down and appears to be landing sideways. But in the next shot, it's shown landing straight.
- Quotes
Sgt. Kabukiman: Well, fuck that, I'm not gonna die. Not here in Jersey!
- Crazy creditsFilm Fact: Did you know that in Pilipino (based on Tagalog), the native language of the Phillippines, the phonetic translation of "The Toxic Avenger" is "where are you going with my goat?"
- Alternate versionsThe "R" rated version is heavily cut missing almost all of the gore and sexual content.
